GPT-6 Sol vs GPT-6 Luna
GPT-6's capability tier against its value tier, twenty times apart on both input and output price with the same context window on each.
What the numbers say
- GPT-6 Luna is about 20x cheaper on output tokens (6.0 vs 120 credits per 1M).
- Both take the same 1.1M-token context window.
- GPT-6 Luna is the newer release (September 2026 vs September 2026).
Derived from the live registry Zeplik routes and bills against. Credits: 1 credit = $0.10, computed from the raw provider rate with a 1.20x margin.
